SDG3000X Series
Function/Arbitrary Waveform Generators

– Output Frequency: 80/160/200 MHz
– Arbitrary Waveform Length: 40Mpts
– Vertical Resolution: 16-bit
– Sampling Rate: 1.2 GSa/s
– Display: 7″ Touch Screen

The Siglent SDG3000X Series Arbitrary Waveform Generator delivers high-performance signal generation for advanced testing environments — from high-speed communication systems to power semiconductor evaluation. With up to 200 MHz output frequency, 40 Mpts arbitrary waveform length per channel, and 1.2 GSa/s sampling rate, the SDG3000X provides exceptional waveform accuracy and clarity.

Equipped with a 7-inch capacitive touchscreen and an intuitive interface, it’s designed for both bench and automated system integration, supporting applications in communications, semiconductors, renewable energy, and academic research.

High-Fidelity Waveform Generation

Combining EasyPulse and TrueArb technologies, the SDG3000X sets a new benchmark for signal purity and control, overcoming many of the limitations found in traditional DDS generators.

  • EasyPulse: Generates pulses as narrow as 8 ns with fast, stable edge performance across frequencies. Edge timing and pulse width can be fine-tuned, making it ideal for semiconductor switching and digital circuit tests.
  • TrueArb: Offers true point-by-point generation across 10 mSa/s to 600 MSa/s, maintaining ultra-low jitter (as low as 150 ps) and THD below 0.075% for superior signal fidelity.

Why it matters: In precision applications, waveform integrity defines measurement reliability. By combining low jitter with advanced pulse shaping, the SDG3000X enables engineers to replicate real-world conditions with confidence.
